wormboy Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I watched a docco years ago called "little fish in deep water" i think. It was a great watch with some good footage of some featherfins and enatopius. I havn't seen it around since then though. It was an old Suzanna Carr - World Around Us special. If you manage to find is let me know as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchar Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Mat..Little fish, deep water and Jewel of the Rift are one in the same I believe...or at least very close. Andrea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksta Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 merjo, I *think* there are some very slight differences but I have only a download copy of one, and scene the other only once some time ago. I may well be getting some footage confused but I *think* "Jewel of the Rift" is missing some short passages that I *think* were in "Little Fish" As for recommendations, "Piranha: Wolves of the Water" was pretty good IMO. I haven't seen anything else specifically about fish that I thought was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormboy Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Just watched "Jewel" last night for the first time and I must say it compared reasonably well with the original "Little fish in deep water". There were a few sections added in and a few bits left out but I would say from memory that they are 80% the same footage. I loved the bit with the otters and the A. compressiceps hiding in the log. I will say that I had a good laugh at Avery whats-his-name though (the commentator). His voice kept reminding me of Troy McClure (Simpsons) or Zap Brannigan (Futurama) so it was a little difficult to take him seriously. The LFIDW commentator was a little less.......conspicuous. -Mat- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
